Chevy Tahoe Heater Return Pipe Hey GMMerlin, I have a leak coming from that threaded fitting for the heater hose. Can this be fixed simply by retightening the fitting or do I need to buy a new one?
You will have to replace it...most likely when you touch it, it will break and leave the threaded part in the intake.. Its a PIA to remove the broken off portion, but you don't have to take the manifold off to do it.
Go to www.thread-saver.com for a new tool to remove the broken part.
if it breaks off you can get the threads out with a small punch and then use wet dry vac. to remove small parts in hole. you can just buy the threaded part and use hose clamp to connect after you cut off the end of hose that is crimped it has a small lock ring that will also go bad or crack not a great design by chev. do it yourself in 10 min or so
It Depends On the Engine that you're working with.On the 420A Engine then the Alternator is located behind the motor on the passenger side of the Engine bay. It can be seen just behind and below the plastic covering for the Timing Belt.On a 4G63(Turbocharged Engine) Engine it is located up Front on the Drivers side of the Engine Bay. Facing the Fender on the Drivers side of the Vehicle look just to the Left of the Strut Tower and Down there you Will See it.There is also the 4G64(Convertibles Only) Engine, But Located in the Same Spot as the 4G63 Engine.
On the 250 cid engine the alternator lives on the passenger side front of the engine.
yes
Yes, I know of no engine where the alternator is driven by the cam belt. The alternator is driven by a drive belt or serpentine belt.
about 2 wires with fusible links in them running from divers firewall to passenger side starter behind engine block.
It is mounted on the engine and connected to the battery.
The alternator is run by a belt connected to the engine. When the engine is running the alternator is turning. The alternator is what produces the electrical current that charges the battery & powers everything electrical while the engine is running. the battery is mainly to start the engine.
The alternator is connected to the front of the engine. It is on the upper left corner, driven by the serpentine belt.
Begin by removing the alternator belt. Remove the alternator wiring harness. Remove the alternator retaining bolts. The alternator will come off.
Usually found behind/under the glove box or behind the kick panel.
Below the intake behind the alternator.
Open your hood and look at the front of your engine. There is a pulley connected to your power steering pump on the right side of your engine. It has hoses coming out of it. If you look below it your alternator should be there. It has a smaller pulley connected to it.
The alternator, or stator, is behind the pull-start cover on the right side of the engine.
The egr valve on the 1999 vortec v6 is bolted to the intake valve. It is just behind the distributor.
The alternator is located behind the engine and almost directly below the intake manifold.
Thet are usually intergrated with the engine, behind the flywheel.
This might mean the ground is isolated from the case of the alternator. In a normal application, the case of the alternator is the ground connection and being bolted to the engine block via a metal bracket, the grounded case of the alternator is electrically connected to the ground lead of the battery which is also connected to the engine block. An isolated ground might indicate the alternator ground is electrically insulated from the alternator case.
